Django Django by Django Django
Django Django is an EP by Django Django, released in 2015. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 3 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Shake & Tremble”, on 3 lists with a best position of #45.
Django Django's self-titled debut arrived on Because Music from a London art-rock quartet who had met at Edinburgh College of Art: David Maclean on drums and doubling as producer, Vincent Neff singing and playing guitar, Jimmy Dixon on bass and Tommy Grace on synthesizers. It sounds like a surf band beamed into a sci-fi B-movie, all clattering drums, chanted harmonies and bubbling synths, with "Waveforms" and "Default" already out as singles before the album landed.
Critics were charmed, Metacritic's tally settled at 80, and the record was nominated for the 2012 Mercury Music Prize. The sales kept ticking over too: number 33 on the UK albums chart, gold and then platinum from the UPFI, and in 2014 a gold award from the Independent Music Companies Association for at least 75,000 copies across Europe. The songs got around as well, with "Hail Bop" turning up in FIFA 13 and "Waveforms" in Grand Theft Auto V.
